‘Alonzo Fitz and Other Stories’ invites readers to deep dive into Twain’s wealth of knowledge and entertaining anecdotes concerning life, language, and love.

A friend to presidents, artists, and royalty, he is remembered today as a popular public figure. Continuing his influence, Twain inspires Disney attractions, singer Tom Petty’s ‘Down South’ and was portrayed by Nathan Osgood in the 2018 comedy ‘Holmes and Watson’.
